Okay, okay y'all, just... here. Take these drinks and sit down, 'cause it's been a fuckin' night and it's not about to get better. [ She pushes the steins at them and then pours herself another glass of whiskey.
Closing her eyes for a second, she exhales purposefully and then begins speaking. ] All right, so like I said before, he's okay. By that, I mean that he's not exactly on death's doorstep, he'll heal up, but... it's real bad.
He said he was outside Cadens when people from Thorne snatched him up and brought him back to the castle. I asked him if he did anything to make Thorne want him, since otherwise, why him, right? And he told me that there's someone on the court that they thought was protectin' him. I don't know who and I don't know why, but I know that they sure as shit weren't protectin' him none, 'cause he rolled up on a horse about an hour ago, barely able to move without help.
[ She tosses back the second glass of whiskey and wrinkles her nose, shakes her head a little when the burn hits. She's exhausted, too exhausted to be drinking even here, but she's also wound up like a clock. ]
A mage helped him escape, sent him here 'cause Thorne don't pay us no mind. Jaskier, whatever they did to him, he could barely message me from down the road, so don't be mad. I brought him home and cleaned him up some, wrapped the worst of it. He's out like a light right now, and I'll get Nadine to look at him in the morning, she's trainin' to be a healer.
